After being dumped by his long-term boyfriend for being overweight, Henry Beckett decides to make some drastic changes. In a vain attempt at getting his boyfriend back, Henry does the most absurdly frightening thing he can think of. He joins a gym.
Reed Henske is a personal trainer who isn't sure he'll ever be ready to date again. He's sick of guys who are only interested in the perfect body image, never seeing him for who he really is.
As Reed tortures Henry with things like diet and exercise, Henry enamors Reed with recipes and laughter. As the friendship lines start to blur, Henry is convinced there's no way Thor-like Reed could ever be interested in a guy like him.
Reed just has to convince Henry that life isn't about reaching your ideal bodyweight. It's about finding your perfect counterweight.
Contains mature themes.

Ik heb het boek net voor de tweede keer uit. Het verhaal was me bijgebleven en ik wilde graag nog een keer luisteren. Wederom mooi en ook eye opening! Mooie personages en grappige opmerkingen. Ik ben geen fan van Joel Leslie maar dit verhaal heeft hij echt goed voorgelezen!

Loved this story. Sweet. Real characters. Love that these characters are weighty. There are a lot of us. Just a wonderful listen.
